I remember being in the first wave of people where doctors noticed how generics were not working as well as the brand name drugs in a big way. Back when there was basically nothing in the news ever about generics not being as good as regular drugs and instead people were talking about how smart it was to buy generic. Generics are used to justify cutting insurance payments for the actual brand name medication.
Years later after an investigation a decent chunk of generics actually went off the market because they were crap. This is a field that has faced unreasonably low levels of scrutiny historically. So it's no shock to see stories like this.
